AMPELOPSIS Veitchii (Boston Ivy). Foliage smaller than in the American and 
more dense, forming a sheet of green. The plant is a little tender while young, 
and should be protected the first winter. 
When once established it grows rapidly and 
clings to a wall or fence with the tenacity 
of ivy. The foliage changes to crimson- 
scarlet in autumn and is very beautiful for 
covering walls, stumps of trees, rockeries, 
etc. ; for ornamentation of brick and stone 
structures it has no equal.

with clusters of large, trumpet shaped,
